n2row Posted July 12, 2014 Report Posted July 12, 2014 Someone has put a repeater on 462.550 without a Pl. You are causing interference to two repeater networks. When they key their repeaters yours key as well since you have no Pl tone. Please change from carrier squelch to tone. Thank youWQSW296/N2ROW Quote
PastorGary Posted July 13, 2014 Report Posted July 13, 2014 Richard - Thank you for the info. We moved your post to the General Discussion area where it will get more views. Welcome to MyGMRS and we hope that the issue is resolved soon. We have many members here from your general area and, hopefully, one of our members may know where it is or who is operating it. I am also a senior moderator at the LAGGROUP GMRS Forum and re-posted your data there as well - in case a LAG member has any info about this. Quote
JohnE Posted July 13, 2014 Report Posted July 13, 2014 just checked w/my control in CSQ in south Brooklyn and I hear nothing. 5dB omni stick 30' up.where are you hearing this? Quote
Captain056 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) This CSQ or All Tones Enabled repeater, is located somewhere south of Jersey City, New Jersey. It has been very annoying for now the last 3 weeks. I key it up from my Base & Mobile fulltime. I have reached out to a Brooklyn repeater owner and it is not his. When he was on his way home from vacation a few days ago, he was bringing it up 100 percent of his time, in the Central NJ area and it was interferiing blocking out his 550 machine which is located by the water. This all started after those severe thunderstorms back around July 2 thru the 4th, 2014. Cash082, was also having a hardtime hearing my Bergen County system , when he was in the area of Sayerville and the Driscoll Bridge and Simulcasting. Butt that is a area which is very Shadowed to my Array. I have emailed a repeater owner, from CNJ to call me. The Doubling starts at EWR International on I-95 going south. I also had one of my users try it ontop of Garret Mountain Castle Look Out both Low & High Power on his HT and he does not bring it up. So this is somewhere down in the CNJ area. I also have seen another system out of LINY on 462.550 listed about two weeks ago on MYGMRS.com. I have requested to use that system but not have heard back from them. If anyone can assist in this matter please reach out to N2ROW or Captain056. Thanks Much,Paul Edited July 26, 2014 by Captain056 Quote
PastorGary Posted July 26, 2014 Report Posted July 26, 2014 Paul - Thanks for the additional info and Welcome to the Forum. Hopefully, this will be resolved soon.... HAS ANYONE HERE heard transmissions on that no CTCSS system from an owner or authorized user ? Might be an idea to simply monitor and if someone comes on who is actually using that system specifically - get a call sign or at least let them know on-air what the issues are. Quote
JohnE Posted July 26, 2014 Report Posted July 26, 2014 my best guess is that during the storm there was a voltage dip/spike or lightning that reset the controller/repeater if its a stand alone and that is what is creating the problem.just my thoughtsJE Quote
Captain056 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Posted July 27, 2014 John, Thats what I was trying to say, LOL I was half asleep when I was sending that out. I think it's the repeater that Cash uses.When he was on his access tone he was not bring up the machine, I am waiting for that repeater owner to call me. Thanks,Paul Quote
captdan Posted July 28, 2014 Report Posted July 28, 2014 Well it would be nice if it would be corrected - quite honestly it is a pain ! Very annoying Dan - NJ Quote
cash082 Posted August 4, 2014 Report Posted August 4, 2014 Shame Robertsville repeater owner hasn't gotten back to you.If and when I hear him next, I'll have him contact you Paul. Quote
Captain056 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Posted August 17, 2014 Cash082, Thank you, so far it has been over a month of this issue. When you are u in the area of your 550 Robertsville, lets see what happens again.You using your access tone and I want to see if you activate two repeaters again. This could be further out on Staten Island now. I have not had thetime to travel lately. I am working on several area fire depts radio systems this ast month with ugrades. Call my cell phone to see if i am around. Quote
